The National Association of Independent Life Brokerage Agencies has picked a veteran association manager to run its operations.
The Fairfax, Virginia-based group says Dan LaBert will be its new chief executive officer.
NAILBA represents the interests of independent wholesale life brokerage agencies.
LaBert previously was executive director of another professional group, the Washington-based National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys.
NAILBA Chairman Jim Sorebo said in a statement that members of the NAILBA board and selection committee believe LaBert has the qualities needed to lead NAILBA for many years to come.
"We have an exciting time facing us as an organization," Sorebo said.
LaBert played football for three years on a scholarship at the State University of New York at Buffalo.
He later earned a bachelor's degree in political science from Pennsylvania State University.
